You don't need a coach to compete the first time. She's not going to be in some world-class competition, and her record won't matter in the long run. Let her get her feet wet, so to speak. If she enjoys the competition, then that's all that really matters.I’d love to, but she wouldn’t have a coach if she competed. They said they would try to help her, but with only one kid interested it would be difficult to promise to help. I understand it’s their business model. The other school does competition only so they don’t continue to work on forms, etc.
I would but her school sent a couple others to compete and they lost bad. I’m concerned about her going in and having no training at all. Her school trained the kids for one week before the competition and that was it. Ugh! This is so difficult.
